Many social media users have interpreted the picture as a sign that the new government is ready to serve Ghanaians with humility.

Although the picture appears to have been taken ahead of the December 2016 election, it has not stopped Ghanaians from lavishing praises on Bawumia.

"What a Woooow!!!!!!! Vice-President Alhaji Dr. Bawumia and his beautiful Second Lady, Hajia Samira in a public transport to work. Ghana is truly back to work," Facebook user, Wofa Yaw Mekow, wrote.

"Very humble man! His Excellency the vice President , Dr Mahamud Bawumia and his wife, Samira in a public transport on their way to work! Good example! No long convoys!!!!," another Facebook user said.
